EMPATHY - A VIRTUE
EMPATHY - A VIRTUE Life is very playful and mischievous always in different dimensions Good times and bad times Pleasure and pain success and failure Are all part of life Success leads to pleasure Pleasure brings happiness Happiness brings wave of love Celebrations and courage to smile and laugh Happiness forgets the knock of pain The low tide of life bringing pain and sorrow To know own people from fair-weather friends Prison of pain brings solitude and resilience To protect dignity and self-respect Now life doesn't laugh Only efforts a grin To endure, to tolerate While heart is bleeding This is the time to know The opportunists will always leave you Your own people try to understand Their observance of your voice tone And understanding your problems This the time for empathy and kindness And that is real virtue A good friend. ----
